Gennaro’s Catering Hall

The staff of Gennaro’s are amazing. Great food, friendly service … Always very helpful. Have any event there you will not regret it. I give them 10 stars.

Excellent food and a very nice overall facility they go out of their way to ensure you have a nice event

Had my daughter’s sweet 16 there May 29 2015. I am truly sorry we had her party there. The party was rushed and the food was not very good.

My grandparents had their 40^th anniversary party I had a great time good food and drinks the only thing I don’t like on my opinion it’s the design it’s so 80’s probably it’s time to update and remodel the whole place a bigger bar custom made lounge chair and bigger dance floor with LED lights since most people are having their parties at clubs and lounge bar the catering business are losing money But if you fine how it is I truly recommend for those people to definitely have your event here it’s worth it…

Big thanks to Jerry and staff for a job very well done. We recently had our twin boys christening at Gennaros catering hall and people are still talking about what a great time it was. We had a big crowd of over a hundred people and it was very comfortable and our guests were very well taken care of. My wife has thrown some work parties at Gennaros and they have all been very nice parties. Jerry the owner is just the nicest guy who genuinely cares and will make sure your event goes perfectly. The space is very well decorated and clean. The staff are well trained and were all very helpful and polite. The food was nicely prepared and there are many choices depending on your budget and taste. I would definitely recommend Gennaros for your party. Thanks again Jerry and staff.

Jerry is the man!!! I had my daughter’s Sweet 16 here. The food was great, the room was beautiful and the pricing is reasonable.
Jerry is a great guy! Easy to deal with and down to earth. Donna was great as well, she was my go to person the night of the party.
I highly recommend them for any event and any future events I have will be at Gennaro’s.
Thank you Jerry, Donna, and Gennaro’s

Had my parent 50^th wedding anniversary on the weekend and can’t say how much I loved the staff here. They made you feel like family I was soo stressed and worried and thanks to Jerry and donna they kept my stress level down. Jerry was the man he made my parents event just amazing everything was decorated beautifully and the food was amazing. The whole staff was nothing but friendly and super super friendly.
I recommend them very highly the attention and the care they give you is simply wonderful. You dont find too many family own catering halls but if you do you will be very happy. Thank you Jerry for everything and for treating my family like they were urs. You made everything perfect and no mistake for my parents special event. Cant thank you and your staff enough. From the Rivera children you get a 5 star from the entire family.

I just had my son’s first communion party yesterday at Gennaro’s. I booked Gennaro’s after getting some positive recommendations from friends. I had never been there, but only heard positive things… then I went on Unilocal and got a little nervous from reading some of the so/​so reviews. Here’s my experience:
First off, the staff is very friendly. Donna and Jerry went ABOVE AND BEYOND for the party. The prices were VERY reasonable and they have a great menu to choose from. We did the Buffet and were not dissapointed. The food was DELICIOUS!!! We had the chicken Gennaro’s, Eggplant Rollatini, Pork chops and peppers, and fried calamari, roast beef, striing beans, roasted potatoes, Gennaro’s house salad, etc. etc… all great! Their passing hors d’oeuvres were great! The rice balls were to-​die-​for! The Cake was delicious! The service was also great. One of the buffet servers kept asking if I made sure I had something to eat because I was so busy running around.
We used our own Deejay, but used their suggested Vendor AJ’s Party center/​Balloons and would HIGLY recommend them for any party. Steven helped me create the perfect balloon centerpiece, which were even more beautiful in person. And he also created the most spectacular candy table… which was SO beautiful, as well as delicious!!! And their prices were reasonable.
I would recommend Gennaro’s for any party… If you would like more reviews… I found a bunch on City Search which was very helpful.
UPDATE: I love Gennaro’s even more… My uncle passed away in July… totally devastating. We were looking for a place to have a bereavement luncheon after the burial, and because it was on a Monday, most restaurants, etc. are closed. We called Gennaro’s and they were also closed, but Donna and Jerry opened specially for us and gave us a great lunch. Incredible service. Highly recommend them for any occasion… even the sad ones :(

I really enjoyed myself at Gennaro’s Catering Hall. I love the hospitality, food and décor. The service was magnificent and I had no complaints at all from any of my friends too. I would highly recommend Gennaro’s for any kind of parties. I will be planning to another party soon there!

I had my 30^th birthday party at Gennaro’s in August, 2010. The service was excellent. From the minute I put my deposit down the owner and the staff made sure I had the party of my dreams.
I went with a buffet and I was overwhelmed because the food selection was quite large. I finally narrowed it down and EVERYTHING I selected got rave reviews from every guest.
The price was very reasonable. I had priced around and Gennaro’s had the best deal. $ 45 per person included buffet style dinner, pasta & salad, appetizers, top shelf open bar, birthday cake, and even the linens (some places actually make you supply your own).
My 30^th birthday was amazing and part of it was because of the location! I would definitely use Gennaro’s again for another big event.
P. S. the food was sooooo delicious!

I came here for a Retirement party on June 29, 2012 in honor of a former co-​worker.
The first thing everyone noticed, was that there was nothing & no one placed in the front to indicate where we would all sit. As a result, people sat down where ever they felt like it. That was cool, until we got the actual seating arrangement, & the people that began eating the appetizers left on the table realized they were eating someone else’s food!
The appetizer was fresh tomato, basil, & mozzarella cheese. It also had some type of vinagerette. It wasn’t bad. It wasn’t good. It was just meh. There was also bread & wine on the table. The wine was some cheap brand that would probably give you a headache if you drank too much. The bread was okay but it was cold.
We were so hungry! The party was supposed to start at 7pm. Granted, it didn’t start til about 8pm but waiting 40 mins or more between each course was ridiculous.
For the entrée’ I had the veal. It was salty, tangy, & bitter. There was way too much lemon used in this dish. It was just not good. They gave me 4 big pieces. Though I was still pretty hungry at that point, I only ate 2 pieces & that was more then enough. The sides were a knish & some veggies… ok whatever.
I’m giving this place one star for the beautiful table settings & 1 star for the decent bread & decent appetizer. Needless to say I won’t be going back.

Great catering hall for a party. Food was excellent, and staff very helpful. I would highly consider having your parties here. Very elegant atmosphere, and it is family owned. Thanks Jerry and Henry for making my special day perfect!

I had my wedding reception recently in May at Gennaro’s, and it was Great! Henry, Jerry, Pete, Robert, and Donna were so helpful. They were patient with my husband’s and I lack of decision making and made great suggestions. Donna did a fantastic job managing my mother, vendors, and flow of the evening.
Pete the photographer was in a car accident same day right before our schedule time for pics but still came to take our pics ad stayed through the night. Talk about dedication.
All my friends and family had a blast, the food was good and generous. Cocktail hours food was plentiful, i didnt get a chance to eat but eard the calamri was the best. The entrée each had shrimp, chicken, and steak and that i can attest was awesome. We added the venetian dessrt which was so much sweets it was almost overwhelming if i wasnt such a food lover. Music on point, spacious for just a little under a 100 guests, plus it was OPEN BAR.
They have the best wedding packages for different needs that include many amenities such as DJ, photog, videographer, limo… YUP!!! Easy planning.
I am absolutely pleased with the outcome and can’t wait to see my pics and video.

Was here for my friends daughters 1^st birthday party. Excellent neighborhood catering hall. Exceptional service and food. There Penne with Vodka sauce is to die for. The bartender was very knowledgable and made my cocktail awesome!

I was invited to a party at Gennaro’s back in mid-​January and will never be back. My table ordered a bottle of red wine. Once we poured the wine into our glass, we noticed it was not the color red, but the color brown. We told the waiter, and he said he would bring us a different bottle of wine. Unfortunately, the same thing happened. At that point, we decided it wasn’t worth it to complain about it anymore.
Next, our entrees came out. About 25−50% of the people at the party ordered the fish. The problem with the fish? It was completely and totally raw. For EVERYONE! How does food like that get sent out of the kitchen? When someone said something to the waiter he responded: «I didn’t cook it, it’s not my fault» and then he just walked away.
I wish I could say something nice about this hall. Unfortunately, this place had not one redeeming quality.
